ABSTRACT:
Apparatus guarding against vandalism and spillage of fluids from a bulk fluid storage facility is described. The apparatus includes a lockable enclosure mounted at the discharge end of the outlet pipe from a bulk fluid storage tank. The enclosure has a receptacle for collecting spilled fluids. A fluid shut-off valve is mounted in the enclosure. The enclosure has a lid which is mounted so that it can be properly closed only when the shut-off valve is fully closed. The receptacle catches any fluid which may drip out of the discharge end of the outlet pipe. The enclosure can be locked to prevent vandals from opening the shut-off valve. When it is closed, the enclosure protects fluid in the receptacle from rain and prevents animals from getting into the fluid in the receptacle.
